  1. I wonder if the terms are dictated by their insurance carrier.
  2. Well done Berlin. Clearly, you have much to say and even more importantly, people like what you have to say.
  3. very interesting. I imagine this thread could get ugly! :-) let the games begin!
  4. Going to the emergency room to get a ring cut off and asking "can you do it while I wait"?
  5. The awkward moment when you're having sex with a girl and her sister calls your cellphone for a booty call...
  6. Storage wars Law and order SVU MI5 Adam 12 Emergency The six million dollar man The good wife
  7. I have a suspicion that the OP was trying to make that point.... He chose a sign that clearly represents a society that does not respect women and used it to comment on the fact that Canadian hotels are also in the dark ages with respect to their rules and policies pertaining to SPs.
  8. Leave it to you, Old Dog, leave it to you... Thanks bud! Well done, my friend.
  9. This thread intrigues me. I shave dry. I find it way easier and I also find that the shaving cream actually makes it harder to control the blade. I have never cut myself doing it dry but have when using cream or lotion. Anyone else have this issue?
  10. thanks for making my day! I am not sure why, or what it says about me, but I love these... :-)
  11. Hey folks, It's snowing in Ottawa - finally! There are now 167 members in the social group, and lots of wonderful pictured being posted pretty much every day. If you haven't joined yet, and love the itty bitty ones (and BTW, I love all of them - big, medium, small, natural, enhanced, etc...) - then please join and most importantly, post! What a great group to check in the morning to start the day right! Have a great day everyone!
  12. What a moving post. I share your perspective. I spent much of my life self-medicating... trying to kill the "pain". Then I realized that pain is relative, and that perspective is what matters. When "bad" things happen to me, it is usually simply a case of me not understanding "it"... usually, after some reflection, I can see what good can come from bad situations. Sometimes they turn out to not be bad at all. Sometimes, they're just bad. Shit happens. What I have come to see is that I have a choice - to swell on the sadness, or do what you describe, and try to focus on the positives. Thanks for posting this - it's always helpful to be reminded. And, as an aside, I always laugh at threads like this because if I ever tried to explain the depth of some of the threads on this board, and the mutual support we often get here, "outsiders" would never believe it. Peace, to all.
  13. While I totally understand the spirit and origin of the OP's question, I would also add that eliminating the mystery can also fundamentally chance the experience. One of my absolute favorite things is seeing an MP for the first time. While I have a general sense of what will transpire, it's the unknown that keeps my heart racing and my stomach fluttering... knowing what will happen, as if from a playbook, significantly diminishes the experience for me. No two MPs are the same, no two experiences are the same. Know that the MPs here that have been recommended are all amazing... trust them, and enjoy the mystery!
  14. Wow. 10,000 rep points is quite an accomplishment! Well done! And thanks for the contributions you make here...
  15. I like Cato because he seems to genuinely care about CERB and CERBites.
  16. Thanks for all your contributions Cato... I am much newer than you and have benefited greatly from your generosity of spirit.
  17. Ahhhh, Penelope.... As I posted previously, your post here prompted me to do the same thing as you... last night I celebrated 2 months of sobriety... My intention here is NOT to hijack the thread - this one's all about you.... but I did want to say that not only did your courage get YOU to start living the life you were meant to live, it also helped me and, I am sure, others. Know that you are not alone.... yes, the "rooms"are full of people who can (and will) support you... but there are also countless people here who are there for you when you need it. Be well, and thanks for my sobriety!
  18. Not sure if anyone has tried Bacon Salt, but it's amazing! Kosher and vegan.... hmmmm...
  19. There is a place on somerset that has a sign that says 24 hours... Not sure if it's accurate though. I'm in be by 10! LOL
  20. no, she was a good student. But I really try to keep a healthy distance between work and play... it's a slippery slope....
